           Summary: fop does support fontsets properly
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: medium
          Priority: medium
         Component: fop
        AssignedTo: langel at redhat.com
        ReportedBy: petersen at redhat.com

   Estimated Hours: 0.0
    Classification: Fedora
    Target Release: ---


Description of problem:
It is a long-standing problem that publican books can be generated correctly
for Indic since Indic (Indian) fonts do not include ASCII glyphs.

If fop was able to fallback to fonts or better use pango or some similar font
abstraction to isolate the hardcoding of fonts from fop itself then this would
just work.  This requires some work upstream I guess but I would like to track
this here in the open for fedora.
